  3. COGNITIVE THEORY Jean Piaget’s cognitive theory is a comprehensive theory about the nature and development of human intelligence. When we apply it to adult education, it is how knowledge is acquired, constructed, and used. Two concepts are used: Assimilation– This concept is how humans perceive and adapt to new information. Accomodation– This concept combines the old with new information, using the old schemas to fit the new knowledge acquired.

  4. BEHAVIORAL THEORY B. F. Skinner asserted that positive reinforcement is more effective at changing and establishing behavior than punishment. His contribution to education emphasized: a. Clearly specify the action or performance the student is to learn to do. b. Break down the tasks into small steps. c. Let the student perform each step. d. Support until the student achieves their goal. e. Intermittent reinforcement to maintain student’s performance.

  5. DESCRIPTION OF COGNITIVE THEORY This theory states that people learn best through critical thinking, reasoning, intuition, and perception. Training is to be delivered to provide the student with insight and understanding necessary to apply the information to real-world working environments.

  6. DESCRIPTION OF BEHAVIORAL THEORY This theory emphasizes that student learning occurs when a stimulus promotes a behavioral change in the student. Teachers implement drills, lectures, tutorials, demonstrations, and other teacher-centered activities. This theory gives students less choices and teachers the opportunity for more intense education.

  7. ANALIZATION OF THEORIES Cognitive theory has been designed to provide guidelines intended to assist in the presentation of information in a manner that encourages learner activities that optimize intellectual performance. Behavioral theory has been designed to include extrinsic motivation and ignores students’ choices, allowing instruction to be broken down in steps to achieve a mastered skill.

  8. EVALUATION OF THEORIES Cognitive theories look beyond behavior to explain brain-based learning, develop learner capacity and skills to improve learning. Behavioral theories focus only on the objectively observable aspects of learning. Learning is the acquisition of new behavior through conditioning.
